When the mother first gets up | and begins to do her housework, the | amount of breast milk is decreased. She | ought to realize then that this deple- tion of her supply of milk is the result of fatigue. I have often advised that mothers | lie down while nursing their babies, and | thus get a 15-minute rest period five or | six times daily, which will improve thelr tempers and their milk supplles. Mothers should get some healthful rec- reation and should also take a haif- | hour nap directly after lunch or at any time when the baby is sleeping. If nec- | essary, the mother should warn her friends not to call her at this particular | hour. No effort should be spared to | guarantee this essential rest. | The followsng letter from Mrs. M. W. | gives a specific example of how berefl- | cial rest is: “My baby was gaining | only 21, ounces weekly and was turn- | ing away from the breast after nursing | a' few moments. There was obviously an insufficient breast supply, but what | to do? I took the baby to another city | to try to fihd out what was wrong, and | behoid, the trouble cured itself when all | I did all day was care for baby.

I think that time lost by an infant in slow or retarded | growth can never be made up. | “Later I had the same experience | with my twins.

Buying one’s “home” is as responsi- ble a task as ever befalls one. Gen- erally one cannot “exchange” a home or return it. Once bought, it must be retained and resided in.
